What Causes Vaginal Itching And Lower Abdominal Pain?

I had sex on 11-12th may and ate an ipill within 36 hours. My period was due on 18th I had it but with lesser bleeding this time. I got an UTI a day later after having sex and took a 3 day antiboitic course for it. It was cured but now again itching around my vaginal hole keeps recurring. I have lower abdominal pain along with lower back pain and itching. The pain is concentrated on the right side. Can I be pregnant? Or this is some other problem?

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Lower abdominal pain, low back ache and itching around vagina are not symptoms of pregnancy.
Moreover, since you had bleeding following intake of i-pill, it states that you are not pregnant.
You must be having yeast infection of vagina.
Kindly do the following to overcome it.
1. Cleanse the area with mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice daily.
2. Apply antifungal vaginal pessary or cream containing medication like fluconazole.
3. Take Tablet. Levocetirizine once a day to control itching.
4. Wear loose fitting undergarments preferably made of cotton.
5. Abstain from sexual activities till the symptoms subside completely.
Maintain good personal hygiene.
Gradually, you should be able to overcome the symptoms and be back to normal.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
Regards,
Dr.Ashakiran.S.,
MBBS., MD.
